A lot of fuctions on HSI is still missing

[=BoB= David]

Hello,

a lot of fuctions on HSI still missing / not simulated, like OVFLY, NAV CK, REF WP, VEC etc... For example OVFLY function on F-16 is simulated / working, however F/A-18C Hornet has been released for more than year earlier and still nothing.

Thanks.

Hi, 

these are not announced features. 

We will complete what we have planned first before we consider wish list items. 

thank you

And when did you change your approach to that? I thought ED (and other third parties) wanted to make complete machines (except for undeclared features for sure) By the way, OVFLY is a very practical feature what really SHOULD NOT missing. I'm rather disappointed that the way the A-10C for example is done / made is not reflected in other / newer modules regarding to that roadmap..

? Those functions that the F-16 does have, like the OVFLY, are NOT on the vipers roadmap, and they are implemented, so that answer doesn´t mean anything

You can create a overfly mark point in the Hornet by hitting the "MK" button on the HSI or SA Page without a target designation.

That's not what they are talking about. It's a different AP nav function that at least was working.

OVFLY and REF WP do work last I checked

If I had to guess, some HSI functions may come with the 'full INS simulation' item on the roadmap, such as the UPDT functions.

 I am not speaking about markpoints..

agree with the reasoning of @=BoB= David and @AKULA_OPTIMUS
and if i may add: the INS wind in HSI>DATA>A/C would be very nice too, and should be an easy task to implement.

HSI wind is already reported:

Totally agree, thank you for your input.

What about REF WP doesn't work?

[Akiazusa]

Is the wind calculation taken from INS too? Maybe it will start working when the INS is fully done.

thanks, but according to @BIGNEWY's reply, i am not sure, if ED is planning to implement it. and i dont consider this to be just a "wish list item"

usually this is how it works. that's why the a/c must be moving through the air to get a readout. and hopefully yes, that would be a good opportunity to implement it
